    Yeah I’m not dissecting a dissertation on how the Palestinians aren’t a race of people or how Israel definitely isn’t carelessly lobbing bombs at civilians, targeting safezones they themselves designate, and are intentionally killing unarmed people based on their race and location.

    If you can’t understand how killing an entire people based on the land they were born on is genocide, I question your basic understanding of the word. This is a genocide. An extermination. A holocaust. Use whatever fucking word you want it’s indefensible.

      Nothing of the things you mentioned constitutes a genocide. These are war crimes.

      And if you argue that Palestinians aren’t a people, the whole concept of a genocide is completely off.

        The semantics game you’re playing to do everything in your power not to call it a genocide says more about you than it does about me. It’s a genocide. Genocide is a war crime. It’s a crime against humanity.

        Palestinians are a people. Israel is intentionally destroying them. Open and shut. Good day.
